Five years into the Syrian civil war, peace remains beyond the bounds of possibility. But in a nation torn apart by war and violence, the children are the most striking casualties trapped in the heartbreaking and chaotic humanitarian crisis.

Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Malala Yousafzai, celebrated her 18th birthday on July 12. However, instead of receiving gifts, the young activist from Pakistan decided to open a school at Bekaa Valley in Lebanon. It is her gift to the less fortunate children of Syrian refugees, NBC News reported.
